Mosaik Support Center on Lesvos Island: https://lesvosmosaik.org/
Mosaik Support Center for Refugees and Locals provides a space of warmth, safety and community for the most vulnerable populations on Lesvos. Built on principles of solidarity, integration and empowerment, Mosaik aims to move beyond immediate crisis response and to offer sustainable structures to support refugees in their resolve to live with dignity. Bringing together over 300 students from teenagers to adults, from a wide variety of countries, Mosaik offers language courses in English and Greek, IT lessons, vocational training in arts and crafts, up-cycling workshops and cultural events supported by artists, activists and organizations from across the world. Mosaik is a reaction to non-existing developments and responses to the improvement of the situation of refugees on Lesvos – also to set a counterexample and to prove that other solutions are possible than the ones always said to be without alternatives and still practised. Mosaik opened its doors in July 2016. Since then we were able to register more than 4000 people for our regular classes plus many many more participating in events and daily visitors to our support desk team.
